American Passages: A History of the United States Volume 1: To 1877 Brief Second Edition
Publisher: Thomson Wadsworth United States 2006. No interior writing or highlighting. Some coverwear/pagewear. American Passages: A History of the United States Volume 1: To 1877 Brief Second Edition By Ayers, Edward L.; Gould, Lewis L.; Oshinsky, David M.; Soderlund, Jean R. American Passages, Brief Volume I : To 1877 Author: Ayers, Edward L. / Gould, Lewis L. / Soderlund, Jean R. / Oshinsky, David M ISBN10: 0618914099 Edition/Copyright: 2ND 06 Publisher: Wadsworth, Inc Cover: Paperback Written by top scholars of American History, American Passages, Brief Second Edition examines U.S. history the way people live--in the flow of real time. Rather than pursuing one topic (such as politics, culture, society, reform, the military, or economics) at a time, each chapter of the text interweaves important themes and issues into one clear narrative. Through this method of presentation as well as through the primary source material in every chapter, students can observe the many ways that events, movements, and groups of people have served to shape history and can learn to make connections between these themes and issues. This revision includes expanded review materials and pedagogy to help students get through the course as well as a free AMERICAN PASSAGES Book Companion Website created by Ed Ayers. This site includes chapter-by-chapter quizzing, interactive maps, videos, audio, and links to over 400 readings. Soft Cover Very Good

Oshinsky, David M.
Polio: An American Story
Publisher: Easton Press Norwalk, CT, USA 2006. As New; Signed by Author Limited Signed Edition Full-Leather A special Limited Edition, this copy is SIGNED by the Author David Oshinsky. A wonderful copy of this collectible book in As New condition, never taken out of its original shrink-wrap;
The 2006 winner of the History Pulitzer Prize Award is a remarkable portrait of America in the early 1950s. David M. Oshinsky uses the widespread panic over polio to shed light on our national obsessions and fears. Drawing on newly available papers of Jonas Salk, Albert Sabin and other key players, Oshinsky paints a suspenseful portrait of the race for the cure, weaving a dramatic tale centered on the furious rivalry between Salk and Sabin. Indeed, the competition was marked by a deep-seated ill will among the researchers that remained with them until their deaths. The author also tells the story of Isabel Morgan, perhaps the most talented of all polio researchers, who might have beaten Salk to the prize if she had not retired to raise a family.
Contains all of the classic Easton Press trimmings: premium leather, silk moiré end leaves, distinctive cover design, hubbed spine, accented in real 22KT gold, satin ribbon page marker, gilded page edges, long-lasting, high quality acid-neutral paper, sewn pages for strength and durability
